I wouldn't try pulling it too much, that is a good way to break stuff. I guess it wouldn't be so bad in gravel or grass, but if you tried it on something like blacktop or other hardpacked dry surfaces it could do some damage. The good thing about most of these old tractors is they have sleeves. If all else fails, pull the head and oilpan, drop the crank, and press the pistons & sleeves out as a unit. The Red recently had this experience with an H and could tell you more about it. BTW, there could theoretically be something broke in the engine that is wedged somewhere in the crankcase - right? I bought a 302 Ford engine once that was "locked up." Come to find out the water pump and timing cover had come apart and there was a chunk of aluminum in the timing chain. If it's that stuck you're going to have to tear into it anyway, so jump in, remember to have fun. It it ever ceases to be fun, SELL IT! Fireman
